Structure of Vision 2050 Forestry

The restructuring of the Vision 2050 Forestry (VTF) currently being undertaken will have the company registered as a group of companies with the following major de facto operational areas reconstituted and registered as subsidiary entities:

PLANTATIONS - Project Developer (Development, Thinning-out & Lumbering/Sawmill).

This unit is responsible for developing reforestation and afforestation projects for new plantations to increase Ghana’s Forest cover planting One (1.5) billion trees across the country with 80% indigenous and 20% exotic in order to mitigate climate change and the forest biodiversity impact on the communities in the areas.

(a) To achieve our set targets, we will launch the planting of our One Hundred and Fifty 150 million tree Project, to cover the Black Volta, White Volta, and Oti River Basin in the next (5) years 2023 - 2027.
(b) Thinning out, pruning and lumbering of matured plantations to meet current needs.
(c) Maintain preventive and mitigative risk management systems, especially against wildfires and theft of timber.
(d) Establish renewable and clean water resources.
(e) Value Chain & Value Addition of forestry products to finished products, e.g. Conversion of lumber to strips and rough logs for export. Use wood waste such as bark and offcuts to turn into biochar, and use sawdust as sustainable construction material.

The SDG Impacts for the projects are:

VTF’s mission is in line with the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals that set a new agenda for the inhabitants of planet earth as a replacement for the Millennium Development Goals which elapsed in 2015. VTF picks particularly on the following goals in regard of its mission above:

  • End hunger, achieve food security and improve nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture.

  • Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts.

  • Protect restore and promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, sustainably manage forests, combat desertification, and halt and reserve land degradation and halt biodiversity loss.

These three goals reemphasize VTF’s un-flinching vision to provide for current human needs without endangering the reserve of all-natural resources for generations yet unborn.

The Carbon Credits Projects are A/R, AGR, and RE and shall be listed accordingly:

A/R — Afforestation/Reforestation
AGR — Agriculture
RE — Renewable Energy

  • Coordinate and follow through the work with accredited internationally based carbon credit verifiers, certifiers, Ministry of Finance and Economic Planning and the Forestry Commission of Ghana.

  • Explore and engage with all conservation fund sources to be able to raise funds for the planting of more trees to combat global warming.

  • Engage with stakeholders such as government agencies, EU, UN, World Bank, and Forest Resource Managers (Project Participants) of Vision 2050 Forestry, so they understand our position and expose the project set as a model for the outside world

Support subsistence farmers to secure continuous income streams while working to preserve forest.

Mobilize investments made from individuals, organizations, government agencies and diplomatic missions to contribute towards offsetting their Carbon Footprints in Ghana.

Bring transparency, liquidity and market access to Vision 2050 Forestry GH’s mitigation and adaptation projects that aim to improve the wealth, health, environment and overall livelihood of rural farmers, urban dwellers, their communities, as well as the global world at large.
